A Doctor of Canon and Civil Law, from the Latin doctor utriusque iuris, or iuris utriusque doctor, or doctor iuris utriusque ("doctor of both laws") is a scholar who has acquired a doctorate in both civil law and church law. The degree was common among Catholic and German scholars[1] of the Middle Ages and early modern times, but is less so today. In unique circumstances, ex-President of the U.S. Mr. Cleveland was given the J.U.D. as an honorary degree by the Augustinian College of St. Thomas in 1902.[2]
The degree can be abbreviated in many ways: JUD, IUD, DUJ, JuDr, DUI, DJU, Dr.iur, DIU, UJD or UID.
